2004 TdF route prediction
I have a premonition that Mt Ventoux will be in it again and will be placed
so that LA will have to once again let the stage win go to someone else in order to win the GC. BTW, does anyone else think that the most important of all stages will be the TTT? |

Well, I guess I was right about the Ventoux anyway |

BTW, does anyone else think that the most important of all stages will be the TTT? http://www.procycling.com/news_main.asp?newsId=4702 I wonder how accurate this is, coming from a Spanish website. Especially when they say things like "Even further into the future, Quebec is being mentioned as a possible host region for the start of the 2004 Tour, but it is more likely that a French city will get the nod. Strasbourg has expressed an interest and could well gain that honour in 2005. Followed by London in 2006? " What year were they talking about for Quebec? 2004 is in Belgium, Odd years always start in France, so that's 2005. |

when they say things like It's rather accurate until the Mountain stages. The Pyrenees will only have 2 stages (not at least). The Alps won't have much more; 1 stage going in - 1 through and 1 out... going into the Jura. The final timie trial is not in Dijon (but close!). Mt Ventoux on the 20th. - Chris - http://www.customgetaways.com Sport Vacations (Multisport, Cycling, Marathons, etc...) |
